Dominating Function

For a simple graph G=(V,E) with no isolated vertices, a total Roman {3}-dominating function(TR3DF) on G is a function f:V(G)→{0,1,2,3} having the property that (i) ∑w∈N(v)f(w)≥3 if f(v)=0; (ii) ∑w∈N(v)f(w)≥2 if f(v)=1; and (iii) every vertex v with f(v)≠0 has a neighbor u with f(u)≠0 for every vertex v∈V(G). The weight of a TR3DF f is the sum f(V)=∑v∈V(G)f(v) and the minimum weight of a total Roman {3}-dominating function on G is called the total Roman {3}-domination number denoted by γt{R3}(G). In this paper, we show that the total Roman {3}-domination problem is NP-complete for planar graphs and chordal bipartite graphs. Finally, we present a linear-time algorithm to compute the value of γt{R3} for trees.

Minimum Cut Problem

Given a graph G=V,E, a connected sides cut U,V\U or δU is the set of edges of E linking all vertices of U to all vertices of V\U such that the induced subgraphs GU and GV\U are connected. Given a positive weight function w defined on E, the maximum connected sides cut problem (MAX CS CUT) is to find a connected sides cut Ω such that wΩ is maximum. MAX CS CUT is NP-hard. In this paper, we give a linear time algorithm to solve MAX CS CUT for series parallel graphs. We deduce a linear time algorithm for the minimum cut problem in the same class of graphs without computing the maximum flow.

We present an algorithm for testing the inscribability of a trivalent polyhedron or, equivalently, testing the circumscribability of a simplicial polyhedron. Our algorithm, which runs in linear time and uses only low-precision integer arithmetic, is based on a purely combinatorial characterization of inscribable trivalent polyhedra.

Graph matching problems are well known and studied, in which we want to find sets of pairwise non-adjacent edges. Recently, there has been an interest in the study of matchings in which the induced subgraphs by the vertices of matchings are connected or disconnected. Although these problems are related to connectivity, the two problems are probably quite different, regarding their complexity. While the complexity of finding a maximum disconnected mat- ching is still unknown for a general graph, the one for connected matchings can be solved in polynomial time. Our contribution in this paper is a linear time algorithm to find a maximum connected matching of a general connected graph, given a general maximum matching as input.

Graph Theory International audience A graph is extended P4-laden if each of its induced subgraphs with at most six vertices that contains more than two induced P4's is 2K2,C4-free. A cycle transversal (or feedback vertex set) of a graph G is a subset T ⊆ V (G) such that T ∩ V (C) 6= ∅ for every cycle C of G; if, in addition, T is a clique, then T is a clique cycle transversal (cct). Finding a cct in a graph G is equivalent to partitioning V (G) into subsets C and F such that C induces a complete subgraph and F an acyclic subgraph. This work considers the problem of characterizing extended P4-laden graphs admitting a cct. We characterize such graphs by means of a finite family of forbidden induced subgraphs, and present a linear-time algorithm to recognize them.

Double Threshold

AbstractA graph $$G = (V,E)$$ G = ( V , E ) is a double-threshold graph if there exist a vertex-weight function $$w :V \rightarrow \mathbb {R}$$ w : V → R and two real numbers $$\mathtt {lb}, \mathtt {ub}\in \mathbb {R}$$ lb , ub ∈ R such that $$uv \in E$$ u v ∈ E if and only if $$\mathtt {lb}\le \mathtt {w}(u) + \mathtt {w}(v) \le \mathtt {ub}$$ lb ≤ w ( u ) + w ( v ) ≤ ub . In the literature, those graphs are studied also as the pairwise compatibility graphs that have stars as their underlying trees. We give a new characterization of double-threshold graphs that relates them to bipartite permutation graphs. Using the new characterization, we present a linear-time algorithm for recognizing double-threshold graphs. Prior to our work, the fastest known algorithm by Xiao and Nagamochi [Algorithmica 2020] ran in $$O(n^{3} m)$$ O ( n 3 m ) time, where n and m are the numbers of vertices and edges, respectively.

We present a modification of Bodlaender's linear time algorithm that, for constant k, determine whether an input graph G has treewidth k and, if so, constructs a tree decomposition of G of width at most k. Our algorithm has the following additional feature: if G has treewidth greater than k then a subgraph G′ of G of treewidth greater than k is returned along with a tree decomposition of G′ of width at most 2k. A consequence is that the fundamental disjoint rooted paths problem can now be solved in O(n2) time. This is the primary motivation of this paper.
